Person in Charge

Mr. José Raúl Pérez Vidal

Mission

To be the Federal Institution in charge of exercising its authority by way of the regulation, inspection, surveillance and certification of Farming, Fishing and Livestock Health, Safety and Quality, in benefit of the value of food and agriculture chains defined by the SAGARPA.

Main Function of the Agricultural Health Inspection Office (OISA) at the AICM

As the name says, this office is responsible for the inspection of products of vegetable, animal and fishing products, as well as international pet transportation. These inspection offices are located at each port, airport and border of entry into the country.

When you enter Mexico by airplane or boat, you must fill in and hand in your customs declaration. It is important that you read it carefully and answer truthfully. Remember the customs declaration is a legal document and that any false information may lead to the confiscation and destruction of the product or to an administrative sanction procedure. Therefore, if you have animals or products of animal, vegetable or aquatic origin, with you or in your baggage, you must declare them upon your arrival on national territory. When declaring these items, they will be inspected by a phytozoosanitary safety official who will determine whether the import is allowed, controlled or prohibited, in accordance with regulations in force.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The information included on the page must be taken with responsibility given the dynamic nature of plagues and animal and plant diseases around the world. Therefore, if there are any doubts concerning the entry of merchandise regulated by the SAGARPA, it is recommended that you contact the corresponding general direction offices. Compliance of the requirements stipulated by the SAGARPA does not release you from the provisions of other entities.
